About
Jez Coach ASL — Learn American Sign Language with Jeremy (CODA | 35 years experience) Hi! I’m Jeremy, the teacher behind Jez Coach ASL. I’m a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) also Hard-Of-Hearing with 35 years of real-world ASL experience, and I teach ASL the way it’s meant to be learned: clear, practical, conversational, and rooted in Deaf culture. My goal is simple — help you feel confident using ASL in real life, not just memorizing signs. I’m also budget-friendly and happy to work with what you can afford. If you have a budget in mind, tell me — we’ll build a plan that fits. Who I work with: Beginners who want a friendly, step-by-step start (no pressure, no overwhelm) Kids, teens, adults, and families (parent-friendly teaching style available) Students taking ASL classes who want extra support, tutoring, or practice Interpreting program students who want guided practice and constructive feedback Curious learners who want ASL for personal growth, work, or connection with the Deaf community What you’ll learn (based on your level and goals): Fingerspelling + receptive skills (understanding what you see) Everyday vocabulary you’ll actually use ASL sentence structure, facial grammar, and non-manual markers Conversational skills: introductions, questions, storytelling, and real dialogue Cultural insights: Deaf etiquette, communication norms, and common misunderstandings Confidence-building: how to keep going even when you forget a sign (and what to do instead) Interpreting support (if that’s your track): I can help you strengthen accuracy, clarity, and professionalism through real practice, targeted feedback, and deeper cultural understanding. (This is tutoring/support — not a shortcut. You’ll build skill the right way.) How my lessons work: Every session is personalized. I meet you where you are, and I keep it structured so you can track progress. You’ll leave each lesson with: A clear goal for the session Practice drills and real phrases you can use immediately Notes or practice guidance for the week (so you don’t feel stuck between lessons) Why learn ASL? ASL opens doors — communication access, stronger connection with the Deaf community, and a deeper understanding of a rich culture and language. It’s an empowering skill that stays with you for life. Ready to start? Message me your current level, your goal (conversation, ASL class support, interpreting practice, etc.), and your availability. I’ll recommend the best way to begin with Jez Coach ASL and help you start making real progress right away.

I've been working with Jeremy for the past three months, initially to review my ASL class material and now to learn new signs. I began learning ASL due to my own hearing loss, which makes my progress and understanding of the language personal and important. My experience with Jeremy has been incredibly valuable, and I highly recommend him to anyone on their ASL journey.Jeremy's teaching approach is exceptional. He has a provides historical context for signs wherever possible, which significantly aids in memory retention. What truly sets him apart is his detailed explanation of sign nuances, including how slight variations in hand shape or position can alter meaning. This crucial insight, often not covered in traditional classes, has been immensely helpful in developing my accuracy and understanding. Because I'm just beginning to learn ASL, and Jeremy is a hearing person himself yet deeply immersed in Deaf culture as a Child of Deaf Adults (CODA), he's uniquely positioned to explain these nuances in a way that truly resonates with and benefits a hearing learner like me. He helps bridge that gap, making the intricacies of ASL much clearer.As the only 1 of 2 hearing member of his immediate and extended family, Jeremy offers invaluable insight into Deaf culture. He patiently shares his lived experiences, helping me navigate cultural norms and ensuring I communicate respectfully within the community. This cultural guidance is particularly important for someone like me, who is just starting to learn ASL and wants to engage with the Deaf community thoughtfully.Jeremy is consistently patient, professional, and reliable. His lessons are well-structured, adapting to my learning style, and he is always responsive to scheduling needs.In summary, Jeremy is an outstanding ASL tutor. His deep knowledge, patient teaching style, and unique cultural insights make him an invaluable resource for any ASL student. I look forward to continuing my learning with him.

Ive been learning ASL with Jeremy for a while now, and hes seriously the best! Hes patient, really knows his stuff, and you can tell how much he respects the Deaf community. Hes a CODA, so he brings a lot of insight into Deaf culture that you just cant get from a textbook. Ive learned so much and honestly owe most of my progress in this language to his teaching. Highly recommend!
